Yes.  In fact, if you have tuned your kernel to your liking, you
can just as well do:

# rm -r /usr/src/sys

And if you don't plan to rebuild the system anytime soon, you
could remove even more:

# rm -r /usr/src/*

Other candidates for removal on my /usr partition are:

/usr/games       - this server don't need no stinking games!
/usr/sup            - I keep my cvsup stuff elsewhere

And, you can remove old cruft from /usr/obj, like:

# chflags -R noschg /usr/obj
# rm -rf /usr/obj/*

HTH,
